A Totally Gross Christmas Competition To Celebrate 1000 Posts!

Oh. Right. For some reason I had the impression that David was going by Perth time (and/or Western Australian time, which is the same thing AFAIK).

I guess I wouldn't qualify then. Sad.

OK all. The results are in (sorry for taking so long).

Firstly, I just double checked my emails and there are still just the 3 entries.

3rd place goes to Spence.


1st place is a draw between Steve and Princetane who submitted the same results. Alas, not a perfect score with 139 out of 144. All five points were lost because the lads didn't pay close enough attention to the second image. It was there for a purpose! I'll leave the top 2 place getters to decide among themselves which 2 prizes they want with the remaining prize going to Spence.

For the record, the correct results are:

In each case you got the country and denomination correct but incorrect series.

David, thanks for the fun time.
Great competition and a lot of work for you.

@dg, as much work as it was to participate, I know that it was tons more for you to organize this contest and then grade our submissions. Congrats to the co-winners @pt and @tm! You guys are way out of my league on this stuff.

Oh okay - glad to win, but seems slightly nitpicky, I honestly thought guessing the right coin would be good enough and some were ambiguous meaning they matched 2 very similar types (Dutch and Antillean 10 cent coins etc). Australian 50 cent coin has identical design and portrait on all of them to 1984. We were penalised for not knowing metal colour basically - for someone with limited sight like me nickle and silver look very close in colour.

I will let Steve choose his prize and first and then I will have the other one.

Steve did probably 65 - 70% of the work and deserves first pick.

Thanks again to David for the competition and my tag team partner Princetance.
David, may I please have the Samoan set.

Congratulation to the other players too. I hope you had as much fun as I did.
